Rock, and World
Music Collide​on November 14 at 8pm at Third Presbyterian Church in Shadyside.
Highlights of the program will be a performance of Heitor Villa-Lobos’
Bachianas Brasileiras No. 1 & No. 5 for cello octet and Cello Fury’s
original music. Cello Fury​(cellists Nicole Myers, Simon Cummings, and Ben
Muñoz, and drummer David Throckmorton) has performed on radio and television,
in rock clubs, concert halls, music festivals, and during an NFL halftime show.
The band has collaborated with artists across genres, ranging from dance,
theater, opera and orchestra as well as with rock bands and singer-songwriters.

“Simon and Nicole performed with our Resonance
Chamber Orchestra in our first two seasons, and we were all excited to come up
with a Cello Fury-Resonance Works collaboration, and one that would be
integrated with a Cello Fury show. All thoughts went immediately to the cello octets
of Villa-Lobos” says Resonance Works Artistic Director Maria Sensi Sellner.
Between 1930 and 1945, Brazilian composer Heitor Villa-Lobos wrote nine varied
suites entitled Bachianas Brasileiras​​in homage to baroque master Johann
Sebastian Bach, in which he freely adapted baroque harmonic and contrapuntal
techniques while exploring the spiritual depths of Brazilian character. Two of
these suites, No. 1 and No. 5, were written for “an orchestra of cellos.”

Joining
Nicole, Simon, and Ben of Cello Fury will be Resonance Works artists Hannah
Whitehead and Katya Janpoladyan, along with Michael DeBruyn, Adam Liu, and
Alexandra Thompson of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. Bachianas Brasileiras
No. 5 ​includes a soprano solo, and the hauntingly beautiful first movement,
Aria (Cantilena), is perhaps the most popular movement from all nine suites.
Soprano Meghan Picerno​makes her Resonance Works debut with this performance.
This past summer she was a quarterfinalist in Placido Domingo's prestigious
Operalia International Vocal Competition in London, and also made her role
debut as Gilda, which “spun with such a magnitude of colors and textures that
the audience seemed to never want to cease applauding” (Berkshire on Stage).

“This
project is a great example of why I love being part of the vibrant Pittsburgh
music scene: eight

cellists from three different artistic groups--Resonance
Works, Cello Fury, and the Pittsburgh Symphony--coming together to present a
one-night only evening of amazing cello music. The audience will be sure to
fall in love with the power and beauty of these cello octets performed by a
fabulous group of musicians!" says Nicole Myers of Cello Fury. 8-Cello
Sound Fusion​​is presented as a part of Resonance Works’ new Resonance Chamber
Series​, which includes evenings of chamber music at The Livermore in East
Liberty and a performance of Ned Rorem’s Evidence of Things Not Seen in
February.

Resonance Works’ upcoming mainstage productions
include Massenet’s Cinderella, Mahler’s The Song of the Earth in collaboration
with Texture Contemporary Ballet, and the holiday tradition of Amahl & the
Night Visitors coming up December 11-13. Tickets for 8-Cello Sound Fusion​and
all of Resonance Works’ season offerings are available for purchase online at,
